There¡¯s a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin¡¯ in
The afternoon is heavy on your shoulders
There¡¯s a truck out on the four lane a mile or more away
The whinin¡¯ of his wheels just makes it colder

He¡¯s an hour away from ridin¡¯ on your prayers up in the sky
And ten days on the road are barely gone
There¡¯s a fire softly burnin¡¯, supper¡¯s on the stove
But it¡¯s the light in your eyes that makes him warm

Hey it¡¯s good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes ¡¯n¡¯ hey, it¡¯s good to be back home again

There¡¯s all the news to tell him, how¡¯d you spend your time
What¡¯s the latest thing the neighbors say
And your mother called last Friday, ¡°Sunshine¡± made her cry
You felt the baby move just yesterday

Hey it¡¯s good to be back home again - yes it is
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes ¡¯n¡¯ hey, it¡¯s good to be back home again

Oh the time that I can lay this tired old body down
Feel your fingers feather soft upon me
The kisses that I live for, the love that lights my way
The happiness that that livin¡¯ with you brings me

It¡¯s the sweetest thing I know of, just spending time with you
It¡¯s the little things that make a house a home
Like a fire softly burnin¡¯ supper on the stove
The light in your eyes that makes me warm

Hey it¡¯s good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes ¡¯n¡¯ hey, it¡¯s good to be back home again

Hey it¡¯s good to be back home again - you know it is
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Hey, it¡¯s good to be back home again
I said hey it¡¯s good to be back home again
